Serves SERVES 6 Starters and mains
Put the ricotta in a bowl and whisk in the goats’ cheese, parmesan and egg. Mix in the herbs, lemon zest and season to taste. Chill for around 1 hour or overnight to firm up.
To fill the courgette flowers, prepare them one at a time. Gently open out the flower and nip out the stamen from the centre. Put about 1 heaped tsp of mixture in each flower and, when they are all done, fold the petals over and twist the tops a little. Chill on a foil-lined and oiled baking tray for 15 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F/Gas 6. Brush the courgettes (not the flowers) with oil and roast for about 12 minutes until just warmed through and lightly roasted.
Make the sauce vierge just before you are ready to serve. Warm the oil, garlic and anchovies together in a small pan on a very low heat (you don’t want them to fry). Take off the heat, add the tomatoes and leave for a few minutes to infuse. Season and add the lemon juice and chopped herbs. Serve with the courgettes.
